Random Thoughts

Random Thought #1:

People often ask me, "Why do you stay up so late, and hate mornings?"

I tell them, "Because I am evolving faster than you. One day soon, when the ozone layer is gone, you will not be able to go out in daylight without your skin burning. Only then will you understand why I like the nightlife. I am preparing for the future, now."

Random Thought #2:

"Somebody told me it was frightening how good Butler was going to be next year in basketball, but I told that story around the campfire and nobody got scared."

My Bio

I am a single white male, looking for incredibly hot single female that enjoys doing everything I do. Oh whoops, I thought this was eHarmony.

About me....I graduated from Carroll High School in the 80s, attended both Ohio State and then Wright State University, where I played varisty soccer. Major was in MIS at WSU. I have one daughter in high school. I have been following WSU athletics for an eternity. I have not missed a WSU home basketball game in over 20+ years and still going...

My Occupation

I work for a jerk at a commercial printing company.

My blog

  1. Blog and Pre-game temporarily down

    12/09/08 11:09:43 | 0 Comments

    Update: 1/21 and I am still homeless, waiting on my loan and living out of a suitcase. :( Heck, Even Obama has gotten a new house before me :)

    Sorry, but my blog and pre-games will be limited in the next few weeks. If you followed my blog, you know I was painting to sell my house. Well, my house sold, my new house is ready, but now the banks are still holding on to their money, so no house yet. So my home computer is still in storage, so my internet access is limited. Hopefully I will...

    Wright State is 0-3 after 3 games and are considering changing their name to the Rattlers. The name change is not for the local native rattlesnakes but for the way their shots are rattling off the rim. This team has been shooting enough bricks to figuratively build that new Raider Village that Bob Grant has proposed. The shooting funk is something that just has to be worked through, and pointing fingers isn't really any way to solve this problem. Plus I only have 8 fingers on my 2 hands. I...
  3. SNL, WSU Style - (after game 1)

    11/16/08 23:23:05 | 0 Comments

    Saturday night verse Illinois State was the first live game of the regular season, and I thought I would give my thoughts on the WSU players and their debut game. So all I have to say is "Live from the Nutter Center, It was Saturday Night".

    The Location:

    First off, kudos to the WSU Athletic Department and the Nutter Center Staff for the makeover of the Nutter Center. Since its inception, the Nutter Center seemed to be just a...

    I'm back, well at least for this week. Here is my take on how the Horizon League will go this year.

    Cleveland State, Green Bay, UIC, and Wright State should all have really good teams this year, and Butler should be up there by January too. Heck even Valpo could be up there able to compete for the championship by the time January comes around. I see this year as a 6 team race for the championship. While UWM, Loyola, Detroit and YSU should all be upgrades over last year. I think the...

    As you can tell, the blog has been dormant and will most likely be down for another month. I am currently getting my house ready for resale and have very little free time, but once my house hits the market in the next month or so. I should be back up a running soon with my weekly blogs. AND Congrats to Bob Grant, things should start moving quickly now that he is in charge.

    Thanks for the return props! Incidently, I always enjoy your game to game commentary on the two boards. It's obvious that you know your basketball and follow the WSU program closely. Someday you will be in the company of an expert like Mark Katz. image Keep up the hard work!


    Go RAIDERS!!
